I wouldn’t have been mad at Beane for making that trade. I would have said “wow, that’s steep” and then forgotten about the compensation as he and Josh hooked up for TD after TD. Oh well. At least beane can sleep at night with his draft picks intact.

I don’t think it’s censorship. I think it’s more “this is already being discussed elsewhere”. Don’t take it personally.

I was also b’ing and moaning in the late 3rd when they were running an offense at a pace you would expect to see when you had a two score lead

Beasley and Allen were lethal. Miss those days.

Yes

That’s who I thought they were targeting (BTJ). I was pretty surprised to see it was Waddle.

Agreed. I also dont understand why Beane is so protective of his early picks. It’s not like he is great at them.

The head coach said it’s “fair to ask” whether Coleman is trying on the field. That’s pretty damning. Nothing to do with being a whipping boy.

This is one criticism i’m willing to listen to. But Allen was not always this way - go back to his first few seasons. Go back to 13 seconds even. He was going NUTS on the sideline. This coaching staff has beaten into his head “not too high, not too low”. He recites that phrase like a robot at this point.

I have mulled this over for a while and I think Allen has received such conflicting advice ovr his career that he feels a bit yo-yo’d. He has had 3 different OC’s in the past 4 years, and each are very different from one another. This current iteration Joe Brady offense is one that can beat up bad/stupid defenses by dinking and dunking and throwing WR screens a million times, but as soon as a team collapses the field and plays the sticks, like the Dolphins did, the offense falls apart. Look at all the Dolphin defenders at the sticks just daring us to go deeper. Daboll had his warts too but he stressed the defense to cover all areas of the field and was very good at scheming guys open in that intermediate zone. Ive said it for over a year now - I don’t like the way Brady runs his offense. I don’t care that we score a bazillion points against bad teams. Part of the inconsistency we see is baked in to type of offense we run. We have so many plays that are boom or bust. No second option. The WR screens are one of them - they’re dead on arrival half the time, if not more.

Joe Brady also mentioned yesterday not to assume that sacks are on the OL or QB, and mentioned that guys need to get open and read their checks better. Thought that was pretty eye opening. First time ive heard him really go after the WR’s like that.

You’re right, he wouldn’t. But Daboll could scheme guys open.
